hy do we feel another person's presence? How can
this presence be captured, revived, and transmitted?
To tackle these mysteries, we have developed a new artificial
being, "Geminoid" and "Telenoid". The Geminoid is an
android robot based on an existing person and it can act as an
avatar of the original person. The Telenoid is another android
robot which is characterized by implementing a minimal feel
as if a spatially distant acquaintance is close-by. We explorer
the mystery of human nature by using the polarity concept of
these android robots.
